Vespa Lampada

Our lampades are handpoured and hand decorated, meaning that are made from the scratch with a lot of "meraki" -  with passion, with absolute devotion and undivided attention. 
 
Lampada is the traditional Easter candle that everyone in Greece holds on the evening of “Megalo Savvato” (Holy Saturday). It is believed that the "holy" light arrives from Jerusalem in every church a little before midnight, thus allowing candles to be lit!
 
Lampades or  Easter Candles are a modern gift that God Parents buy or make to give to their God Children at Easter time. 
 
 
As the Candles are made by us, you can choose between the colour and candle style - plake (rectangle) or classic cylinder and you can also choose if you would like it to be scratched (charakti) or not :) 
 
If you need further help with your order, don't hesitate to get in touch with me :)
